Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton will debate each other next month. (updated)

Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton will debate each other next month.

Former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush will meet for a debate late next month. The event will take place on Friday, May 29th at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. We're told the “debate” will occur in the form of a moderated question-and-answer session, rather than a more lively exchange between the two Presidents.

Oh, puke!

When will they stop propping up this morally bankrupt asshole?

Update:

Photos from Bush's first speech since leaving office

1. Clinton will eat W's lunch.

[Captain Hilts]

2. Don't let the kids watch. A debate? Is GWB stupid. Oh, never mind...nt

[ProSense]

7. Most likely,

but what's the point. This just seems so odd weeks after the torture memos are released. I can see the media using this as an opportunity to hype Bush's credibility.

What's the point?

[blm]

30. Really? Bill was Ws lefthand man selling Iraq war to Blair, Dem lawmakers and American public.

Bill used his summer2004 book tour to support and VIGOROUSLY DEFEND Bush's decisions on terrorism and Iraq from the criticisms of the 'left' being launched at the time by the Democratic presidential nominee.

[karynnj]

33. I think he will too

but it will be interesting to see if he can outclass Bush as much as Senator Kerry did.

I think Kerry's skill made Bush look worse than he really is. He did far better against Gore (who still beat him) and Richardson. Bush was never the idiot some here wanted to paint him - he was worse, he knew what he was doing and did many awful things.

[politicasista]

41. Yep.

It is interesting that no one is answering you and others replies though. I wish blm good luck in getting people to see that in the still admiration of BC and hatred of W. :shrug:

[Clio the Leo]

3. And if Bush was CAPABLE of engaging in an exchange that was lively or intelligent...

.... that might be interesting.

As it is .... I'm predicting a bi-partisan Obama love fest.

[Arkana]

4. Oh dear god it'll be a massacre.

My God. W AGREED to this? He's going to get demolished.

[rwheeler31]

5. Hmmm this might be boring.

[politicasista]

42. True

I love Obamamania as opposed to Bubbamania. :)

[SharonRB]

6. I always knew W was dumb,but to agree to this

against the Big Dawg? He's totally out of his mind. Bill will massacre him. :rofl:

[karynnj]

34. Think of the expectations

If Bush simply keeps his cool and gives the same answers to things he always does, he will sound better than people will expect him too. Think of debate 1 in 2004, he was pathetic, but if Kerry wouldn't have been near letter perfect, the coverage would have been whatever thing Kerry said wrong.

Here, Clinton can beat him to the ground on 90% of the questions, but if Bush can get Clinton angry or get him to say anything controversial, that is likely what we will hear.

[NYC_SKP]

8. Why would Bill Clinton want to dignify the Worse President Evah with this event?

:shrug:

[ProSense]

10. That in my opinion

is the burning question, why?

[NYC_SKP]

13. I think the two most popular theories could be:

A. Bill Clinton has the opportunity to tear Bush a new * and thus expose him as a, well, *.

or...

B. Bill Clinton just can't resist an opportunity to grab a mic and get in front of people.

:shrug:

[PBS Poll-435]

15. *(cough)*

B

[rcrush]

23. B

That and he's best buds with Poppy Bush so he probably did it as a favor.

[Baby Snooks]

25. They're just one big happy family....

?

Maybe eventually people will wake up about the Clintons. Maybe eventually people will wake up about Barack Obama. Maybe when people look back and wonder what happened to the United States of America.

What happened was everyone was taken for fools. Which they were.

[Hutzpa]

22. Dunno

maybe they want to prop him up....:shrug:

or another option which could be more than likely,
Bill loves the lime light and is trying to grab it from
the President.

Furthermore, (controversy statement, beware) Bill and Bush
Sr are trying to bailout Jr, with all the bailout these days,
no surprises....:tinfoilhat:

It'll be fun T.V....B-) can't wait.

[CakeGrrl]

24. +1

:wtf:

Are they both attention hos jonesing for the camera? I'm not sure what they want to accomplish, but the MSM is probably salivating. Bleh.

[blm]

31. Why did Bill use his summer2004 booktour to vigorously DEFEND Bush's Iraq war decisions?

Backstabbing the presidential nominee with every interview he stuck up for Bush against the left's criticisms and attacks.

[AtomicKitten]

35. Cover for his buddies, the Bushes?

[vaberella]

9. Are they both running for 2012? Ahh..the surprise of the century. Only in America. n/t

[Arctic Dave]

11. Why in the hell would the Big Dog give that POS the time of day is beyond me.

[JaneQPublic]

12. Remember, Bills is best buds now with Poppy Bush...

...and will likely go easy on Junior.

[DeepBlueC]

16. and Poppy told him he couldn't sell a ticket without Bill

I think GWB has already worn out the only place in Canada where he might be welcomed by enough peole to bother coming. Bill Clinton is a guy who pulls 'em in in Toronto.

[chknltl]

14. This fight is gonna be about as fair as a Harvard Law grad going up against the third grade bully!

President Clinton should do to President bush what bush did to German Chancellor Angela Merkel, only The Big Dog should be checking for:

[classysassy]

17. Make sure

there is nothing bulging inside w's jacket.

[bumblebee1]

18. why would Bush do this?

Everyone and their brother/sister knows that Clinton will wipe the floor with him. Don't be surprised if the Big Dawg comes out on stage with a bucket of water. There will be NO electronic gadgets inside Big Dawg's jacket.

[blm]

39. Clinton helped Bush sell Iraq war. Clinton was renditioning throughout his terms. Bush knows Bill

has always been on his side. Those who think Bush 'fears' Clinton don't know much about the last 3 decades and the Bush-Clinton-Bush alliance.

[tridim]

19. Need some wood?

What a joke. :eyes:

[YvonneCa]

20. Okay, Prosense, we're almost three weeks out from...

...April Fool's Day. :sarcasm: You ARE kidding, right??? :7

[ProSense]

38. I'm still trying to figure it out.

:)

[NYC Liberal]

21. Funny how all of Bush's "speeches" since 1/20 have been out of the country

Canada, China (in May or whenever, I think), and Canada again.

[zbdent]

26. W would have a slight chance ...

if Bill Clinton is medicated into unconsciousness for the entire debate ...

[ClarkUSA]

27. How much are they each being paid for this PR wetdream/farce? Because you know it's not for charity.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

28. LOL! Clinton will DESTROY W.

Clinton is a brilliant, charismatic man. W is neither.

[blm]

37. W was smart enough to use Bill Clinton to sell Iraq war to Blair, Dem lawmakers and American people.

And smart enough to get Bill Clinton to use his high profile summer2004 booktour to support and vigorously defend Bush's decisions on terrorism and Iraq against the criticisms being launched at the time by the Dem nominee.

Bill will be helping rehab Bush2 rehab his legacy the same way he rehabbed and protected Poppy Bush and his cronies.

[natrat]

29. maybe they will both talk about how wonderful nafta and their bank policies were

[Fleshdancer]

32. This must be proof that W is drinking again

I admit to wanting to watch this train wreck. :rofl:

[Fearless]

36. This should be hillarious...

On the short list of invited formerly important people: Joe the Plumber, Joe the Camel, and the reanimated corpse of Joseph Stalin! AHHHHHHHHHH!

[politicasista]

40. I prefer President Obama and former President Carter

Not to debate, but just better as young and elder statesmen.

Not Anti-Clinton or nothing, JAO.
